[5] picked the serpentis side, so lets do it right, and have concord set them to -10 all.
Being affiliated with known pirats and helping the likes should not be tolerated.

It was definitely good fun, though I feel abused by having a mean ole Vindicator piloted by a Dev take out my poor little cruiser when there were juicier targets around. 
I will admit, I'm confused why "The [Jackson] Five" felt that the Titan needed an escort. Truth be told, I think they just wanted to mix it up with anyone else along the way. That's fair, I know a fair few of 'em went down too.

TBH I think they only wanted a few more kills to put on their killboards. Killmails 4tl!

We wanted to add more flavour to the event. Face it, what fun would've been 400 people shooting at a Titan untill it goes down, the one of the 30 noobships rushing away with the loot it dropped? None whatsoever.

Have to agree with you here, altrough IMO titan is too overpowered. 35mil shield as i heard? its a bit too much i guess. Or should say that i think that when playable titan will be released it will have only 100k shields?

Yea, its pretty much a flying POS. Not to mention, with 8 medslots it can just bring 8 hardners and be nearly invulnerable.

Its been one of the worst events ever.
That titan had too many shields. We spend hours with 100+ Battleships firing on it. The lag was just awful.
Also the titan pilot logged out a few times and spawned again in another system. He did not use his jumpdrives but just logged off. Great roleplaying from CCP :(
Not to mention the the Faction Megathron spawns 150km away who picked single ships. Did CCP thought it wasnt hard enough already?
Great work also to ATUK and SHINRA, who decided to engage the ships shooting the titan. Its been 230 ships in one grid. Most of us got one frame every 30 seconds, even with all turrets effects disabled.
Also Atuk and Shinra didnt seem to be able to decide sides. They changed mind from escorting the titan in shooting it about every minute or so. I guess they wasnt really after the event, but tried to get easy FA kills. If I ever had some respect of you guys - I lost it yesterday night ...
Conclusion: Worst event ever ...

Shinra and ATUK did never switch sides. At one point, while we were in talks with Tuvan Orth, Salvador Sarpati declared us KOS in local. He claimed 'our assistance was not needed'. Tuvan Orth did not know about this, and we talked with him. Tuvan would discuss it with Salvador. In the mean time, we shot some Serpentis ships to show we meant business.

Ask me..........and I will answer that it was a great event.
We where 80+ in my gang and we lost a couple of friggs, only 1 BS (who went down going 1vs1 titan and the vindicator group).
We where able to take it to bout 20% shields. But we also managed to kill of all the "Actor" Vindicators (6+ of em).
And about Atuk and Shinra. I think it was cool that Player peeps helped the "NPC" corp as an escort group. added to the event (roleplaying) flavour.
So tnx to all the peeps who joined in on the fun (some nice Politic qwerks)
And to CCP tnx for another great Event, keep em comming.
Satisfied vindicator killer.
PS. next time Egulbard Afsommon....perhaps put some WCS on....for your own safety =P
Egulbard Afsommon Bye Bye vindicator
Another vindicator kill......check around for more of em

Just because you actually killed something doesnt make it a good event. Our killboard is filled with vindicators and daredevils either.
Im also not very much impressed that you took down its shields to 20%, as it was us who brought it from 100% to 40%.
I guess you also missed the fun chasing the "cheating" titan from F67E-Q to 3HQC-6, where we lost members almost every jump, which then were not able to log in again.
Our gang member count dropped about 50% due to the lag, bugs and because of the too long time needed to kill the titan. It has just become too late for anyone whos not in the US time zone.
CCP should have prepared the servers better or make the titan killable by less players.
Btw. That you appreciate the acts of your allies Atuk and Shinra doesnt suprise me much.

I was on the other side of the galaxy when all this started kicking off. It took me well over 2 hours to get to the fountain region thanks to numerous gate camps and lack of book marks. It was going quite well until I came accross the great FA blockade, almost impossible without BMs, although some heros managed it. Speaking of bookmarks, good job the Titan didnt have any. (s******)

I wont say anything bad about those who protected Titan, however i must say it wasnt very fair from event-team side.
Think about it this way.
Protectors knew who they up to. They were up to PvP. So they fitted up strictly for PvP. The Attackers were goin up to both PvP and PvE. And no need to point up that creating all-around BS that will go PvP and PvE is impossible and it will do bad in both.(well expect tanked raven or apoc).
So either event should be mainly PvP or mainly PvE. Not both at a time.

ok guys.
lets think about this from another point of view.
wat if CCP wants to use the titan in a further story line EG the gellente fed goes out there and takes it back some how, so they coulnt well have some player killin the titan or the story line woulnt work.
but i still think 35mill shields and 8 mill armour were a bit too much i think 8 mill on shields and armour would have been enough.
just another point of view

I have to say, that if the shield were down to 20% it wasnt really too much. without our help the titan would almost certainly have gone down. (this is not bragging, i just am sure the Titan would have been killed)

for me it was a good event i was here all the event without gang and still alive, have see all the battles it was fun ^^
[5] was with Serpentis side, it add more rolplay, maybe not fun for Gallente allies, but that added more action!
we loosed a titan in serpentis hand, bad day for gallente federation :(

If it was accually a RP corp/alliance that would have aided the Titan, fine but I can't really say that I believe that [5] were there to RP(not that anyone cares what I believe  )

while it may be true that none of us care what you think, nevertheless we WERE roleplaying. It was our plan from the very announcement of the event to help serpentis as MOST of the stations we live in are serpentis, as are most of our agents. It would have made no sense to attack it.
Furthermore, you talk as if we brought an unfair force. We had a few over 30 BS vs several HUNDRED.

That was total RP.
Serpentis is my favourite corp in game, and they love me too.
It was RP from the beginning to the end and it was great fun.

I have to say, that if the shield were down to 20% it wasnt really too much. without our help the titan would almost certainly have gone down. (this is not bragging, i just am sure the Titan would have been killed)
Thing is, that after about 3-4 hours of shooting at the titan, the shields where down to about 40%, not 30% not even near 20%.
Conclusion would be that even without the 5 "helping" the titan get away, it would have taken about 6-7 hours of about 100+ BS shooting at the titan to take it down. Now remember that no BS can stuff its cargo with NEARLY enough ammo to shoot 6-7 hours straight, getting ammo takes time and kills ships (camps, Pirats...) extending the time to kill the titan to at least 8-9 hours.
I personaly dont know all too many ppl that are willing and able to play EvE for that amount of time straight.
With other words, the event either wasnt meant to be won on player side, or was simply very badly planed by CCP (although it was fun)
The 5 interviening (sp) just added unneeded Lag to the entire event. Not to mention the NPC BS that kept spawning right in the middle of the pilots fighting the titan right in the middle of 250+ ppl fighting each other.
It was fun to a certain extent, but i was only involved for about 2-3 hours of the entire ordeal. For those that where chasing the titan for about 6 hours, that fought the 5, tried to get back to the titan and so on... i can truely understand thier frustration and them being angry at the way things went.

The Event lasted for about 14 hours from Start to Finish, I was with it for at least 10 hours and i know there was a lot more people who stayed the same amount of time

Good logic, if we didn't escort it we would have been shooting it, same amount of lag. . .

I seemed to think the damn thing looked or looks like Jay Leno's chin,funny how you lads haven't noticed it. And who wanted to kill a titan again? dude, if you could kill it that easily then all the SCC tax from our exploits woulda been considered a waste tbh,'sides they dont say empires for nothing.
